In Chapter XVII of Semmer’s book he mentions the “OC” Doubles. One particular stamp was to blame for the “typos”. He says the oddity occurs in ‘98, ‘07 and ‘10 guns. Said he hasn’t seen many and considers them scarce. Check the photo.

Phlebas the Phoenician, a fortnight dead, forgot the cry of gulls, and the deep sea swell and the profit and loss.
A current under sea picked his bones in whispers. As he rose and fell he passed the stages of his age and youth entering the whirlpool. Gentile or Jew O you who turn the wheel and look to windward, Consider Phlebas, who was once handsome and tall as you.
